Do we really have freedom of speech?

We do have freedom of speech, especially when compared to certain Dictatorship run countries. But, with freedom of speech comes responsibility. For instance, while we could enjoy the freedom to criticise the Government, we would not expect to be able to incite a riot on the Government. Nor would we expect to verbally slander someone and not risk being sued by the person we have slandered.

What protects the press from censorship?

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution garantees "freedom of speech" and "freedom of the press." This amendment was one of the original ten amendments that make up the Bill of Rights and were added to the Constitution before it was even ratified by the states. The First Amendment does protect the press from censorship, but that does not mean that the press can print whatever they wish to print. The government is able to censor the press if the press is going to publish some information that would be a threat to national security. An example of such a thing that the government would be allowed to censor would be if the press was going to print the codes to release the nuclear bombs that the U.S. government has. However, this is an extreme example and it is only in very rare cases that the government needs to utilize this power. The major gaurantee that the press has from their protection under the First Amendment is that they can say bad things about politicians and the government in gerenal (as long as it does not fall under libel or slander), without being punished by the government for their actions.


Why do you have freedom of press?

That is a good question. And what is 'freedom of the press' anyway. The reason a government should affirm freedom of the press is to enable the free flow of ideas. In a democracy the authority to govern comes from the people. The people need to be able to freely access information and put information out for others to consume. Freedom of the press means freedom in all aspects of society, government, culture, art, science everywhere. A government that is under the authority of the people cannot suppress ideas in any area of human endeavor. It has been observed that freedom of the press belongs to who ever owns the press. But anyone, in a free society can buy a press or the use of a press because there is always someone who would sell you access to a press. In the age of the Internet everyone with a computer and an Internet hook-up can become an instant publisher. A government that is afraid of criticism does not have much confidence in their own policies. And maybe with enough criticism they will change their policies. A government that wants to silence the press is a government that wants to do things the way it wants and not necessarily the way the people want.


Do press really help in maintaining democracy in a country?

Yes! Freedom of the press is a cornerstone of democracy. The press is an independent agency that (ideally) reports objective truth to the people so that they are informed and able to make their own decisions, including whether or not they approve of the government's actions. Control of the press by the government is employed by Fascist regimes to create their own subjective version of the truth. Democracy requires multiple viewpoints, and the ability to criticize the government is one of the most important rights in a democracy. The press helps shine a light on reality. Power exercised in the dark--without oversight, regulation, and feedback from those governed--is too easily abused. The more we know about our government, the more we can assure that it adheres to the tenets of democracy.

What was the result of Revolution of 1848 in German?

The Revolution of 1848 in Germany ultimately failed in its goals of unifying the various German states and establishing a democratic government. Despite widespread uprisings and protests, conservative forces were able to maintain control, leading to a significant setback for the revolutionaries. The events did, however, pave the way for future movements towards German unification.
